New Delhi:
Mamata Banerjee s Trinamool Congress today won a landslide victory in Bengal. The Chief Minister, however, lost to BJP s Suvendu Adhikari in Nandigram. I accept the verdict in Nandigram - it is not a big deal. Don t worry, she said.
Khela hobe did happen, and we did win. The BJP kept going on and on about double-engine
sarkar, while I assured you all that I will score a double century. This is Bangla s win. this is Bengal s win. this is your win. This win has saved Bengal, it has saved the culture and tradition of Bengal, said Ms Banerjee who ran a bitter, no holds barred campaign against the BJP over two months as Covid cases surged in India.
